  The SAP error message EI243 indicates that a user does not have the necessary authorization to change the status for a specific legal regulation and license type. This error typically arises in the context of compliance management, where certain actions are restricted to users with specific roles or permissions.
  Cause:

  Solution:
  
  
  Check User Authorizations:

  Review the user's roles and authorizations in transaction SU01 or PFCG.
  
  
  
  Modify Roles:
  
  If the user lacks the necessary authorization, you may need to modify their roles or create a new role that includes the required authorizations.
  Ensure that the role includes the relevant authorization objects for changing the status of legal regulations and license types.

  If you do not have the necessary permissions to change roles or authorizations, contact your SAP security team or administrator to request the required access.
